    ANybody watching that right now? I've seen most of it before but have been watching it the last couple of weeks. It was ******ed back then, kicking the guys off for losing a challenge rather than fighting. Just ******ed.
    Chris Leben was a fuking complete piece of ****, an embarrassment to the sport.
    Jason Thacker was a nice guy. I felt bad for him, he knew he lacked the skills and just looked so awkward before crying when he got kicked off.
    Logan is a fuking creepy homo, walking around with his little speedo's and bending over in front of the guys.
    Diego is a weirdo too although kinda funny.

    I'm glad this show has evolved although the latest season lacked any real drama in the house which I find gets the viewers like myself more emotionally invested in the fights.

    I think it has now become quite a serious platform in creating quality fighters.

    Yes Forrest Griffin became a Champion. Nate Quarry, Kenny Florian, Diego Sanchez and Josh Koscheck have already or are fighting for a title soon. At one time both Mike Swick and Chris Leben where 5-0 in the Middleweight divison and both 1 win away from earning a title shot and then Swick agian later was one fight away for a Welterweight shot but he was outpointed vs Dan Hardy. In the case of KenFlo I think its obvious this man is one of the best fighters in the world and its only a matter of time before he gets that elusive title.

    Leben was a disgrace with his actions and big mouth. Saying this guy or that guys "sucks ****," completely insulting and probably ripping away any respect the viewers may have had otherwise for certain guys like Thacker. I mean come on, it's some of those guys 15 minutes of fame and Leben has to literally **** on the guy physically and mentally in front of millions. That guy is the sole reason fighters have reputations as criminals and delinquents

    Still watchin Season 1. I can't believe how much of a piece of crap Koscheck is, not to mention Bobby Southward. These guys act like convicts just out of prison -- totally evil and juvenile.

    Leben's antics actually MADE me a fan of his. I hated him at first, then saw just how passionate he was and how hard he was willing to work. Seemed like a troubled kid looking for a direction. Bobby Southworth calling him a fatherless ******* was cold, I wish somebody had ripped him for having 2 fathers! :lol:

    Junie, hands down.

    That guy was in a whole different league to Leben.

    Yea, as much as I hated him at the beginning of the season (see my above posts from a month ago), I'm now liking him towards the end lol

    I was surprised that Leben and Quarry seemed to get along so well. Quarry seems like the anti-Leben; the kinda quiet, reserved type.

    I think they were from the same area or something though? Training partners, maybe?

    That Quarry consoling Leben seen was kinda awkward. I realize there was "no homo" in that situation, but it still looked kinda weird.

    Was that the bit in the garden, after those knobs Koscheck and Southworth had finished bullying Leben?
